Booked 24 times todayA great place for foodies and special occasions. Went there with my hubby for our wedding anniversary on a Monday which was surprisingly busy. Had the crab cake (note the singular description) but had a wonderful salad with the crab cake. Hubby had the mushroom fritters. Both dishes were delicious. Would have like two crab cakes for the price. We both had the king salmon for the main course. Both were perfectly cooked. Had the sticky toffee pudding but it tasted like a caramel cake. I guess it’s the British version of a pudding. Service was spotty. Our server provided great wine and food info but we couldn’t get his attention to order our main course wines and our check. Overall, we had a great experience. More

As frequent diners at Corso, we love to introduce it our friends. As usual, we got raves for the food and service. It's rare to find anything so predictably excellent. More

Great food and amazing service. Small neighborhood place with great flavors and an owner that really has taken the trouble over the ambiance, decor and food. The service was top notch too and they have a solid and reasonable wine list. More

Wonderful food. Nice variety. My wife’s pasta melted in your mouth. The wild boar sausage dish had excellent mix of other flavors from wild mushrooms. The scallop appetizer was also wonderful. More

We went for lunch. the food was excellent and reasonably priced. Moreover, the staff was particularly attentive to my six-year-old granddaughter. As she sat down, the hostess handed her crayons and a sheet with a castle design to color. The waiter brought her food, ordered from a kids' menu, immediately, rather than make her wait for the grown ups' food. Much appreciated. More

Great food and service, but it was quite noisy, making conversation a bit of chore. The tables were close together More

Really nice place. I didn't expect Skates to be as good as it was. The views are wonderful and I thought that might be the high point. But the food was also wonderful. The service was excellent even though the place was very busy. We were really impressed with Skates. More

My wife and I shared the appetizer platter at happy hour for $18 and it was enough food for the two of us. Very tasty! More

Lalime’s is everything we had hoped for and more. It was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary. Food was terrific, as was the wine. Ambience was nice. It was lively without being too loud. My only complaint was the wait staff was not up to everything else. Not bad, just not on the same level. Our waitress clearly wasn’t that interested in her work. Understandably perhaps. But when you go to a restaurant like Lalime’s, you kind of expect a higher level of service. She was perfectly competent, and the food arrived on time, and all that good stuff. She just wasn’t charming. And you kind of expect that. Also, portions are small and the cost is high. Again probably something you should expect. But I will definitely come here again. Not on a weekly basis, but for special occasions. More

We had never been to Nico's 1508 but decided to go for brunch on Mother's Day since it was one of the few places in Berkeley that would take a brunch reservation. The food was very good and we liked having a curtained booth. But what really made it a wonderful experience was our waiter, Joey. He was so personable and told us he was planning to Facetime with his mom as soon as he had a break. What's not to love about that? More

This is a great location for downtown Berkeley. Perfect place to catch a bite to eat before the afternoon show at the Berkeley Rep. Busy place, probably because the food is good and the staff is friendly. We hit an especially busy time, so it was pretty noisy. The outside area would be great in nice weather. More

Our favorite Thai restaurant in The Berkeley/Richmond area. Can’t understand why it isn’t always jammed packed. It makes it that much easier to just drop in! More

The main reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because cold air was blowing on us the entire meal and I had to wear my coat while dining. I noticed others doing that as well. Both food and service was great. We particularly enjoyed the Daal Maakhani with black lentils instead of the usual yellow. Wonderful nutty flavor. More

Good food, average price, good service in light of only 1 waitress. Food was served 1 dish at a time based on when prepared. Last dish quite slow because ran out of tofu and had to go out and get it. However the food and quietness lent to our definitely returning Took other reviewer comments under consideration and did not order any meal with a red pepper icon. Yet, 1 meal was still a bit spicey More

I have eaten at Namaste twice. The food and service are excellent in this beautiful restaurant. Once I was with a friend from Bangladesh who stated it served authentic regional cuisine. Although Berkeley is full of great restaurants, the outstanding feature of this restaurant is that it is really, really quiet (due to extremely high ceilings?) so conversation is easy for all patrons at a table for six or eight. Although the truth is that our group was at the restaurant from 6 to 7:30 when there were relatively few patrons so the noise level was low in any event. However I believe it would be relatively quiet even when truly busy. Highly recommended More

I had lunch there and the food and service were excellent. I prefer mildly spicy and it was just right. Prices were very reasonable for lunch. A nice addition to the neighborhood! The naan was super good and had a nice garlic flavor. More
